Shilpa Shetty to tickle the taste buds this time

It was the uncooked chicken which had gained controversy in the Big Brother house and Jade Goody had famously dubbed Shilpa as “Shilpa Poppadom” when she was in the house.

Now, the Big Brother winner Shilpa Shetty has launched a range of readymade gourmet meals in the U.K. Shilpa, who lives in Surrey with her fiancé, entrepreneur Raj Kundra, has acquired a 33 per cent stake in the V8 Gourmet Group. Her range to be developed by her jointly with master chef Andy Verma would be ‘Shilpa’s Gourmet Creations’ which will offer low fat chutneys, pickles and spices. The development of the range is expected to take about eight to six months time and so it will hit the U.K. market next year. Among others the range will also offer lamb, fish, chicken and vegetable dishes. The spice range will be organic.

When Shilpa was asked whether Poppadoms will be part of the range, Shilpa replied, “Poppadoms do show we have a sense of humour, we intend on giving them out for free. I do hope they are not called Shilpa’s Poppadoms.”
